The Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art
The first major multi-museum survey dedicated to contemporary artists based in the Midwest, The Regional brings together work by 23 artists working across painting, photography, installation, and performance. The artists come from a variety of backgrounds and are based across the region in cities like Detroit, Cincinnati, Chicago, Cleveland, Columbus, Indianapolis, Kansas City, Madison, Minneapolis, and St. Louis, among others. Celebrating the artistic and cultural complexity of the region, the exhibition provides a platform for a generation of artists who are shaping the current and future discourses of contemporary art and culture.

Image Feature in The Atlantic
Untitled #27 from my series Mors Scena was featured in an article in The Atlantic describing the disturbing lack of paid time off for family bereavement. Especially during the huge loss of life seen due to COVID-19, the ability for folks to properly grieve is being negatively impacted. Thanks to the author Chad Broughton and to Photo Editor Jehan Jillani.
